“Amy always takes such amazing care of Lola for us. She sends us daily updates and is very flexible with drop off and pick up. We know Lola is in great hands whenever she goes there and appreciate the peace of mind Amy provides us.”
“Zach and Kelsey were fantastic with my dog! She came home happy after a great stay, and I loved getting photo updates twice during the day. Their care and thoughtfulness made the whole experience easy and worry-free.”
“Jesse is always so incredibly sweet to our baby. We always appreciate the fact that our dog is always welcome, even on short notice. Jesse is the best dogsitter and our baby loves going on her little adventures with the pack.”
“Our German Shepherd loves staying with Amy and her family. This was our 2nd time boarding with Amy, and once again we received daily updates on our dog's activities, complete with pictures. I cannot rave enough about how excellent the whole experience with Amy is.”
“Terry is the quintessential dog person. She is warm and welcoming. She sent me lots of photos. There are no words to express the relief and gratitude I felt with my beloved dogs in her care while I was away from them. I knew that, not only were they safe and happy in Terry's home, they were treated with genuine affection. ”
“I can’t say enough good things about Jennifer. She was able to accommodate my schedule change on short notice. She sent me several photos and gave my baby lots of snuggles.”
“Amanda did an amazing job of taking care of my dog for a week. I have a small dog that recently went blind and Amanda was very well versed in taking care of older dogs and dogs with disabilities. Her house is well set up for taking care of older/disabled dogs and communications with her were always instant. Amanda is also an incredibly nice and personable person in general. I highly recommend Amanda to anyone needing a dog sitter.”
“Kristen & Christopher took amazing care of our pup! They provided regular updates, made coordinating plans seamless, and I knew our dog was receiving lots of love and care with them! We’d highly recommend them!”
“Emily was a great sitter for my fur baby! She was very thorough, from the initial booking to picking up my dog. I received updates and pictures daily. I will definitely be booking her again!”
“Excellen all around! Great communication before and during our trip, with lots of consideration for the dogs’ routines and comfort. Loved all the photos that showed us the dogs were having a great time at “camp” — knowing they were in good hands let us enjoy our trip all the more. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again.”
“Elizabeth was fantastic. She was so attentive to our dogs. We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. She sent us pictures to update us. We are so happy with her.”
About: It's pretty simple - I love dogs and I work from home. Having recently said goodbye to my own best boy, Gary (a squishy English bulldog mix), I can guarantee that I'll get as much happiness out of seeing your dog as your dog will hopefully get from seeing me! I understand how important it is to know your pet is comfortable in your absence. I will treat yours as my own and send you as many updates as you'd like! Some key skills that may come in handy: - Walking dogs with leash reactivity - Experience with senior pets and those with medical needs - Administering medications, injections, paw wraps, etc. I'm currently working from home full-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play and love on your pups! I'm available for boarding all day, every day and would be happy to have a four-legged coworker around :) I have a fenced yard to keep your fur baby safe while exploring and getting lots of sniffs! We also keep a clean and tidy home to ensure your pet is always safe. Of course, there may be times when I need to step out (I'm human after all!), but will be happy to abide by any requests you have. Things like bowls, leashes, light up collars, pet gates, and a crate can be made available.
“Grace is amazing! She took wonderful care of Boogie and sent us tons of pics of our lil guy! Communicative and friendly — I had such great peace of mind while we were away and knew he was in good hands. Boogie came back a happy dog :-) Would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Jonathan was absolutely amazing!! My family found my puppy Coco in the park, a man just dropped her and her sister off in a box and left. So ever since we got her Coco has had very bad anxiety. I needed a sitter and I was very nervous because she has anxiety. However, after talking with Jonathan and having a meet and greet, my nerves slowly faded away. Jonathan sent updates and videos of Coco, and Coco ended up getting comfortable with the other dogs and played. Jonathan’s an amazing sitter and I’d definitely hire him again!!”
“Le’Quitta and family took very good care of Boss. He was such a happy boy being with them. Thank you! She is our repeat sitter and always does a great job!”
“This is my second time using Nicole for boarding my golden retriever. Her home is well equipped for dogs and she takes great care of them. Timely communicator and I would recommend!”
“Was such a great host of my cat pumpkin. Sent timely updates and made sure to get the cutest pictures of her back to me during her stay! Definitely hope to book her again in the future.”
“Becky was nice and she sent me pics and updated me the entire time. They were active with my baby and she was worn out when she got home which was a plus...lol. I would def use her again!”
“Denise was the best with my dog. I definitely wouldn’t want to kennel the dog or crate the dog while I needed a day sitter for 3 weeks. I picked up my dog every morning and night and Denise was absolutely the reason why my relocation for a job. I was absolutely worried about a lot. Denise was the best option for where I was working and what I needed to accomplish. Book Denise because I would book Denise again since we had no complications and it was just an experience too good to be true.”

So happy I found this website and Jayanna! She did an amazing job and made my dog feel comfortable, even though she was very nervous around the other dogs at first. Jayanna was patient and caring. She sent us photos and videos throughout the stay without us even having to ask, which gave us great peace of mind. She was also extremely flexible and accommodating, especially since our booking request was made only two hours in advance. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Ashland is $48 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $39 and $58 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 921 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ashland. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Ashland can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Ashland home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Ashland.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Ashland sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in VA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
